Two Despicable Men

Gonzo will be officially gone from the white house on Sept. 17. Good! The damage he has done, sadly lives after him.

Yesterday, Michael Vick said he made a mistake when he fought and killed dogs. He also said he has now found Jesus and turned his life over to god.

Michael made no mistake, he committed a hideous crime. He did it more than once and I’m betting he’d still be doing it if he hadn’t been caught. He’s not sorry for what he did, he’s sorry he got caught doing it. As for finding Jesus, most criminals find Jesus in jail, Michael found him on his way to jail. Michael got a head start on that part of being a criminal.

I hope the howls of those dogs, dying in agony, haunt him every night in his sleep for the rest of his miserable life. He deserves nothing less.

Well, that's a relief. Now the sheriff can call off the manhunt - Jesus has been found.

Don't they all "find Jesus" when they get caught? Kind of capricious of Jesus to hide until someone gets in trouble with the law.

Maybe now my lawn service won't be so crappy.

Thing is, Michael Vick still doesn't care about the dogs. He cares about losing his big $$ career - and that is the ONLY thing he's sorry for. Getting caught and losing his career. The dogs won't haunt him, because he is deaf to them.

He'll never hear them. He's proven by his actions that he's nothing other than a thug, a stone killer and a pissant bastard who can't stand up for what he's done, 'cause he knew all along how nasty it was. Fool didn't deserve what he had, and the universe took it away.

Now he bleats out a non-apology on teh orders of his lawyers, in teh hopes that in 5 years or so the crime will be forgotten and he will be forgiven. Like KO says, better that he gets out sooner, while the memory is still fresh in everyone's minds and spends some time with hat in hand begging for his life back.

It's not like he'll ever be a pauper - he's already a multi-millionare

It looks like he is finally getting some good advice, since the contrite act he's putting on now seems like the best way to play it. But it IS an act, and I'm not buying his conveniently found faith either. Do you think he appreciates the irony in the fact that God is dog spelled backwards?

Why do criminals always find Jesus after they commit their heinous crimes? Sorry, Michael, it's not better late than never. You'll always be a violent, sadistic cretin. I hope some very big, very powerful dog-lover teaches this guy a few lessons in jail.

vick found shit, not jesus. an animal abuser is almost always a sociopath, someone with no innate sense of right and wrong. if he somehow escapes a prison sentence, may he put to 50,000 community service hours cleaning up dog poop.

what he did was heinous - can you imagine that rage being played out on a football field? amazing he hasn't killed a human. but then, those kinds of lunatics always pick on someone smaller. even 6tho i mostly don't believe in it, i could go cap punish on this. after, of course, being tortured with the same instruments as he used on those poor doggies.

i am sick of all those poeople denying their obvious guilt until they are caught hands down after they can't blame anyone els anymore then they all of a sudden find Jesus and you are supposed to let them keep their millions and forget their intended crimes. Burn them all I say!

Of course, the fellow is a sick bastard who thought that his celebrity status and wads of dollars gave him impunity that has been extended to him possibly since his early teens. Even without knowing this sad person, Vick, I am absolutely convinced, that he is the last person in the world to fully recognize the extent of his horrendous actions. You either get it, and don't commit the cruelty like this, or you don't, and act like him. Now, all the wheels are in motion to save him as a lucrative moneymaker to his team, to his various handlers and to the man himself. Didn't fool me. Jesus is/was supposedly a smart guy thus he will not fool him either.

Yes, Mr. Vick you found Jesus. You found Jesus a long, long time ago, and you taunted Him and put Him in a ring full of fear, aggression and blood and viciousness... and you made money from betting whether or not He'd win or get torn apart.

I'm guessing that the POP caucus doesn't have too many sports fans, and (the Lord knows) I gave Vick the benefit of the doubt, and the blosophere knows I'm somewhat agnostic on bloodsport, but Vick's is so awful it's farsical. LOVE the Jesus ritual.

The best sports Jesus ritual story comes from baseball 1991. Darryl Strawberry had a 2nd flake positive and "found Jesus." Soon after, he and Kevin Mitchell took a fishing trip off Mexico. Some reporter asked Mitchell if it was true that Strawberry had "found Jesus." Mitchell's answer "not on weekends, he didn't."

Everyone has made such good comments on this that there is little I can add, except to say that "finding Jesus" in order to try to mitigate one's sentence, after committing heinous acts like this, is the very definition of "using the Lord's name in vain."
